Avani Persaud
Hello and welcome!
I am a Licensed Master Social Worker and Certified Trauma Professional based in Texas with 4 years of experience, specializing in helping people work through relational trauma and relationship challenges, OCD and anxiety disorders, eating disorders, PTSD, and chronic stress. I am also certified as a ‘Health at Every Size’ (HAES)- aligned Inclusive Eating Disorder Specialist.
I emphasize a holistic approach in my work, meaning I consider the interconnectedness of your mind, body, and emotions, as well as the environmental factors that impact your well-being. This includes the personal, social, and cultural influences —like family dynamics, community support, and societal structures—that shape your experiences. By looking at the whole picture, we can better understand your struggles and create lasting solutions.
My therapy style is collaborative, compassionate, and client-centered. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where you can explore what’s holding you back and begin to move forward toward a healthier, more fulfilling life....

Dominique Hardy
Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to support children, adolescents, and adults facing anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, grief, and PTSD. I’ve also worked with incarcerated adults, providing therapy and case management services aimed at reducing recidivism and fostering hope for a brighter future.
In my practice, I draw from evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). I believe in creating a supportive, collaborative space where clients feel safe to explore their experiences and build on their strengths.
Since moving to Miami in 2013, I’ve remained committed to giving back to the community, volunteering with organizations that mentor and support inner-city youth. Outside of therapy, I’m a singer and songwriter and enjoy integrating creativity and music into my work when appropriate.
If you’re ready to take the next step toward healing, I’m here to support you....
